Here is the LA28 Para athletics competition schedule

Para athletics will once again take centre stage at the Paralympic Games as the LA28 Organising Committee confirmed the competition schedule with 20 sessions across 10 days at the LA Memorial Coliseum, culminating with the traditional marathon races on the final Sunday (complete Para athletics schedule below).

The LA28 schedule reaffirms Para athletics’ position as the largest sport of the Paralympic Games with 164 medal events in the programme. 

One of eight sports included in the first Paralympic Games in Rome 1960, Para athletics has remained on the programme ever since – and will continue that tradition as Los Angeles prepares to host the Paralympics for the first time.

The last edition in Paris saw 1,129 athletes in action (618 men and 511 women) from 152 nations. China topped the medal standings in the sport with 21 golds and 59 podiums in total, followed by the United States (10 golds and 38 medals) and Brazil (10 golds and 36 medals).

Swiss wheelchair racer Catherine Debrunner was the most successful Para athletics athlete of the 2024 Games with six medals (five golds and one silver).

Competition at LA28 will begin on 16 August with five finals in the morning session: the women’s 100m T35, men’s 100m T37 and T47, women’s long jump T11 and men’s discus F52. The Para athletics programme will conclude on 27 August with the men’s and women’s marathons T12 and T54. 

The marathon will take place on the final day of the Games, with the course starting at Venice Beach Boardwalk and finishing in front of LA Memorial Coliseum.

The full course information for the Paralympic marathon will be announced later this year.

Complete information and updates can be found on the LA28 official page.
